This cottage had families and large groups in mind when it was professionally decorated from top to bottom! We are located directly on the water of all-sports 356 acre Long Lake with great views from house, and a private dock for your boat. There is one bedroom downstairs and an additional two bedrooms and den upstairs which is perfect for either kids or two families sharing the cottage. The cottage sleeps nine and seats 16 with three tables. Cute town 10 mins away with restaurants and grocery.

Our cottage is on all-sports Long Lake which is a very clean lake, and our frontage has a shallow, sandy bottom which is perfect for young kids. A fantastic fishing lake as well! Our grill and firepit are included so you can enjoy s'mores while watching the sunset. We have lifevests, towels, noodles-anything you need for water fun! Our front yard is perfect for yard games, or can hold 4 cars for parking.

We have the best neighbors! This is a quiet, family-friendly lake. Long Lake is a 360+ acre all-sports lake so bring your boat and have fun (there is an access point and you have use of our private dock). We want you to have a blast, but just ask you be respectful to our neighbors as well.

Nice vacation home. Key parts of the home have been updated. The house has a very nice and relaxing feeling to it. We enjoyed sitting on the deck, and our kids enjoyed playing in the water. Would recommend for someone who wants to relax and get away from the city. The neighbors were also very kind.

This house is beautiful! Walking in, I was instantly comfortable. The energy and flow of the decor and layout brought a rush of relaxation that truly set the tone for my vacation. The outdoor areas are the perfect place to both enjoy and escape the weather: a wonderful covered porch for the warm rain with incredibly comfortable furniture, and a gorgeous pool area with toys and floats to kick back in the cool water on those amazing, hot sunny days, and with speakers everywhere... it was so easy to set the mood for vacation mode! The loft area where I slept, is perfectly accommodating, allowing me to feel separated and connected at the same time... it was like my own little home within a home! The bed was heavenly, the bathroom was clean and quaint, and the sitting area had every amenity one could hope for. I would definitely stay here again!

Corinne2016-08-20T00:00:00Z

We flew in for a wedding for only about 24 hours. Diane was extremely accommodating about our need to arrive and immediately begin getting ready for the event. She met us at the door, and showed us to our space. The loft was a lovely and private area, and we were very comfortable. Having our own bathroom was a great feature of this property, and we didn't feel that we were bothering her when we came home late and left early the next morning. We wish we could have stayed longer, but it was just perfect for this trip.

Sarah2016-09-19T00:00:00Z

Fantastic first experience with Airbnb! Diane was a great hostess & very accommodating! She was organized and very friendly too! She shared lots of ideas of things to do around the area! My kids loved her pool too!

Manda2015-09-07T00:00:00Z

Diane's place is simply fantastic. The room was excellent and has everything you could need. A superb bed. A great living room and TV. There was even some snacks and breakfast! Diane's communication was great it was a shame we couldn't meet her in person. We got to hers late and left fairly late the next day. I would thoroughly recommend this Airbnb.

Tim2015-08-28T00:00:00Z

Diana is a very friendly and very kind person, people feel truly at home. Home care was very clean and comfortable, this five-star recommendation to everyone! ! ! Diana thanks to my journey to bring the best memories, if the opportunity will go to the next!

ERIC2016-01-27T00:00:00Z

Diane was an exceptionally gracious, kind, and accommodating host. Diane's home was quaint, clean, and exactly as advertised. The area is quiet and safe and after a long day of running around my son and I turned in early and slept peacefully and comfortably throughout the night. The rate was extremely reasonable and almost half of any hotel within 10 (or more) miles. We would definitely stay again.

Bret2016-01-08T00:00:00Z

How can you not give five stars to someone with the coziness, attic space for four, who patiently awaited our arrival after several delays, who generously shared all she had of her own stuff and space and repeatedly checked in with us when she was out? Diane made our visit more memorial than almost every other trip to GR. Location to attractions and shopping was convenient. Thanks, Diane!

Charles and his wife are gracious, wonderful hosts. They treated us like family from the minute we arrived. My friends and I had a great time in the beautiful pool and deck area. The kitchen is fantastic for anyone who loves to cook. It's a bit of a hike down to the river, but other than that this is a beautiful, quiet spot to enjoy the outdoors with family and friends.

Tom2015-07-26T00:00:00Z

Charles and Jamie are excellent hosts and their place is amazing. Truly everything you'd want for a restful time in a rural setting on the Flat River surrounded by forest and beautiful landscaping with hardly a soul in sight for miles.

Peter2015-09-03T00:00:00Z

We've stayed at Jamie and Charles's place for our annual family trip. We loved the place! House is unique, large and comfortably accommodated 6 adults and 2 kids (there is room for more). Property feels secluded and is very quiet. We loved the decor and character of the gardens and home itself. Kitchen is more than fully equipped. The pool and hot tub are amazing - our kids had a blast! We went for a hike and dinner in great restaurant in Lowell, recommended by Jamie. Kayaking on the river was amazing! This is a get place for a family escape to nature! Jamie and Charles and wonderful hosts!

Ania2017-08-06T00:00:00Z

Our family loved this retreatlike getaway! Charles and Jamie welcomed us upon arrival and showed us around their great home, hot tub, multiple deck levels, pool, and kayaks. They've done a bit of traveling, so everywhere you look there are cool knock-knacks, books, and artwork from other countries. Out the front windows, we had daily entertainment with a slew of songbirds hopping amidst the many feeders. We saw Bluejays, Cardinals, Orioles, finches, hummingbirds, Grossbeaks and many more. Because the property is built into the side of and incline, everyone can enjoy sun or shade throughout the day—it was a little chilly for the pool but several among us took a dip after kayaking or hiking. We loved how private this home is, and how close to nature we felt.

Emily2017-06-03T00:00:00Z

We absolutely loved spending a long weekend at Charles and Jamie's beautiful home! In total there were 4 of us and the house definitely could have held more. We loved that the house was off the beaten path, but near enough to little towns to meander through if that is what you wish. We tended to spend most of the time at the house and went to town to buy groceries and explore the different Amish stands and farmers markets to prepare food at the house. We loved the access to the pool, all the outdoor decks, grill and fire pit. Charles and Jamie were extremely kind hosts and very nice down to earth people. We spent time getting to know them when we first checked in. They had all the supplies you could want from snacks and s'mores fixings to organic debugging mist, tons of firewood and towels. We didn't take advantage of the river, but loved that they had kayaks and canoes for use. The rooms and beds at the house were incredibly comfortable and all the outdoor seating was a treat. The house was absolutely perfect for us! If someone asked is there anything we "should know" before we go I would say there are a lot of stairs (again fine for us, may be more challenging for folks with mobility issues). Otherwise be prepared to spend a wonderful weekend at their "little slice of heaven! We can't say enough about positive things about "Camp Charles" and look forward to visiting again! Thank you for letting us stay at your home!

Tara2015-07-12T00:00:00Z

The house and surrounding property was amazing! In fact, better than the photos! We had a wonderful time. Enjoyed the pool, the river, the Chipmunks and the Raccoon that showed up also! Thank you Charles and Jamie for being so accommodating to us! BEST way to spend my 50th!!!!!

Jennifer2016-06-13T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful time! This place is amazing...a real paradise! Great fishing, kayaking and a beautiful pool to lounge at. Lowell is close by for groceries and a few restaurants. A little bit further is a great touristy town of Rockford. Charles and Jaime, thanks for sharing your place with us!

This Murray Lake house was wonderful and secluded. It looked just like the pictures. The lake was warm and shallow enough by the beach for smaller children to enjoy too! Sue Anne was very easy to get a hold of and very hospitable. I would stay here again and recommend it if you're looking for a place to relax on a beautiful lake.

This was a quiet, comfortable, and affordable retreat for our family while visiting our extended family from out of town for the holidays.

We had a great time at the camp/cabin. It was totally secluded and a beautiful setting on the lake. Great big fire pit and huge grills. Awesome place for large groups. Tons of room to spread out. Also the fishing was wonderful!

Jared2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

Just as it reads. Very serene, scenic place to relax and enjoy living. Suzanne was a great host! Will definitely look this place up if I ever am in the area again.

Mark2017-04-14T00:00:00Z

I had rented the retreat center for a handful of women as a surprise birthday party/retreat. It was exactly what I was looking for... quiet, out-of-the-way, equipped kitchen, etc. We spent most of our time laughing and eating chocolate around the big table in the kitchen. While two people made a meal, they could still be a part of the conversation. The beds were comfy, the shower hot, the kayaks fun, and the firepits inviting. (Although it was a bit too damp for us to enjoy those.) We did enjoy a nice walk through the property as well. It was a fabulous place for our group, and we're already planning a return trip. Suzanne and the other staff members were great... checking on us just enough to make sure our needs were met, but not too much to be pesty.

Melissa2016-10-09T00:00:00Z

Everything was great! Just as described. We will definitely be back!

Henry2017-09-01T00:00:00Z

Our family met for a reunion at the Retreat Center and everyone of all ages had a wonderful time--two to 75. The kayaks were well enjoyed, the swimming and small beach were great for children, firepits were set in scenic locations, wooded walking trails were pleasant and the casually furnished retreat center itself was spacious, clean and attractive. Plenty of seating for the group and the mattresses were comfortable. It was the perfect venue for our family gathering!

Ideal "glamping" vacation for nature loving people who want to unplug, immerse themselves in nature & still be very comfortable. I provide everything except food & clothing. It's secluded yet 40 minutes to downtown Grand Rapids (home of the best breweries and much more.) Lake Michigan is 55 minutes away. Rockford is 20 minutes away and you can find quaint shops, rent bikes for the White Pine Trail, rent canoes and canoe down the Rogue River, eat at a number of great restaurants.

For a beautiful "glamping" experience, this 18 foot RV is perfect for one or two people looking to unplug & immerse themselves in the beauty & peace of nature. It's on a private peninsula overlooking the lake with full lake access. Full bath, fridge, stove, sheets, towels, dishes, paddle & row boat, fire pit with some firewood. Fully heated. If you need, ice, drinks, bait, tackle or gas Tow's Country Store is 2 miles away. Free Wifi is just around the corner at the Spencer Township Library.

Come to Art Prize in Grand Rapids. It is 40 minutes to downtown! Then come home for peace & quiet!
Ideal for "glamping". Rented only from April - October, this 18 foot vintage RV is in a secluded space with a large meditation garden on one side and stairs down to the lake on the other. There is a high quality infra red heater in it that will keep the place very warm. I also provide soft, comfy comforters and warm blankets.
It is across the lake from Shinrin-yoku which is also listed on Airbnb. I live on the lake and there are only two other families on this lake. We have all been coming here since we were kids so it holds a special place in our hearts and we love the privacy and the beauty of this secluded lake. There are no gas motors and the lake is very clean with many springs keeping it that way.
It's on a peninsula surrounded by popular trees and the breezes always blow off from the small lake. This lake has no motors on it and is spring fed. It is connected to a larger lake by a channel. The RV has a full bath, fridge, stove, oven, coffee maker, sheets, towels, pots, pans, dishes.
Ideal for couples, girlfriends, or a single person looking to unplug from it all and become one with nature. It is teaming with wildlife and is ideal for birding.
I have been teaching contemplative walking meditations, offering life transition ceremonies and retreats here in this safe, sacred space for three decades. The restorative energy here is amazing. Many say they feel it as soon as they drive in the driveway!
Imagine floating in the small, quiet lake that mirrors the clouds and natural shoreline of the trees. Around you fish are jumping, turtles sunning, birds fishing, dragonflies galore! So bring something to float on.
Guests have access to a row boat or paddle boat down the stairs in front of the RV. Bring your fishing pole for perch, pike, bass, blue gill and more. Bring your own kayak or canoe if you like. You can swim in the lake as the water is not only very clean, but feels like velvet due to the many fresh water springs in the lake. The water is very healing as I often go in after working on the land and the scrapes and puncture wounds I get begin to heal instantly!! It amazes me. There is no sandy beach, but the bottom of the lake is firm enough for you to walk out a ways and then swim to a floating dock.
When you get here I will show you around and then you will have all the privacy you are looking for. There is a gate at the end of the half mile long driveway to make it a safe and sacred space. You can come and go as you please.
Grand Rapids is only 40 minutes away to downtown and it has lots to do if you want to drive down for the day or the evening for a wonderful dinner or live music.
Attend Art Prize in Grand Rapids from Sept. 24 - Oct. 12. It's an amazing experience which you can learn about here: (URL HIDDEN)
There is a great little country store just down the street with excellent pizza, Amish cheese, and stuff you may have forgotten to bring. There is a Meijer store with decent organic veggies and everything you would need 15 minutes away in Greenville.
If you like to bike you can bring your bike to Greenville and take the White Pine Trail as far as you feel like riding! Rockford is 25 minutes away and has a great farmers market Sat. mornings and fun shops and boutiques.
You can also rent canoes and kayaks to take down the river that runs through Rockford. The White Pine Trail runs through Rockford. Grand Rapids is only 35 minutes away as well.
To go to Art Prize you can drive 30 minutes to the Meijer on Knapp and E Beltline, park your car and a shuttle will take you right into downtown. Fast and easy with no hassles of parking.
I'm sorry, but pets and children are not allowed. No smoking in the RV please. Thank you.

Breweries, shopping, bike trails, canoe rentals, and bike rentals are all close by (about 15 - 20 minutes away. Many like to just stay here, experience the beauty and solitude, have evening fires (I provide wood for a day or two), or fish in the very clean pristine lake.

I had a great time this past week at the RV! Daina was a great hostess and gave me privacy all week. The wildlife and beautiful views added to the stay. I will be looking to coming back someday. Thanks Daina!

I brought my girlfriend here for a few days. We enjoyed the privacy and the lake access. The water was nice and clean. We caught a few fish and laid out on one of the floating lake docs all day. It was beautiful. This best part of the trip was that we got engaged! I proposed to her while she was sitting on the tree swing that overlooks the water. I would book again if I ever have the chance!

Enchanted Lake definitely lived up to its name! My wife and I spent a week here for our honeymoon and couldn't have been happier. The setting is ideal for disconnecting BUT it also has great cellphone reception (verizon) if that is a concern. The RV was clean, well-kept, and had everything we needed... and a few things we forgot! The lake is absolutely stunning and Daina was a very gracious host. We did not meet in person, but she kept in touch throughout the whole stay to make sure everything was going well. The location is great, as it's only a half hour to downtown Grand Rapids; if you're looking to have some city adventures it's just the right distance. We would absolutely stay again!

An absolutely charming RV in a secluded spot of woods over looking a small, private lake. The space provided all the amenities of a hotel with all the charm and quirk of retired home-on-the-go. Lots of windows and skylights provided lots of fresh air and sunshine-filled mornings. There was enough hot water for 2 sailor showers each morning, and good water pressure, too! The space itself appeared clean and regularly tended to. There's a nice long, private drive for a morning jog and the temperature of the private lake is perfect for a refreshing dip. The paddle boat was especially fun to take out for a spin! We were surrounded by wildlife. A squirrel watched us from the tree swing, a chipmunk investigated the remnants of cold charcoal, and a raccoon peered down at us from a tree one night when we'd returned late from a wedding in Grand Rapids. We were happy to have brought earplugs, as the frogs sounded as if they were playing frog banjos all night, and our city ears were not accustomed to the ruckus! :) I had asked if Daina would adorn the space with some bright & cheery decorations for my fiance's birthday and she accommodatingly obliged. It was the perfect finishing touch to an already charming space.

Located on a 10-acre parcel with surrounding conifer trees, you have full access to the interior of this travel trailer. Queen bed (real bed) in one room, folding sofa bed in the main living area & four (4) bunk beds (not sofa beds) in another (see the spectacular pics). We have used this travel trailer in week-long camping/hunting trips and have used the bunks as sleeping quarters and/or temporary storage of your luggage, which keeps items out of the way. Travel trailer has room for seven (7), but we like to limit space to five (5) people for ideal space. Please send a note if you desire from 6 to 7 people within your party. A 12-foot slide-out exists making your living room and dining room very spacious. Although, this is a rural location, shops (small & large retail), craft breweries, good restaurants, pharmacies, and safety personnel are just minutes away. Private site includes use of outdoor fire place, trellis and outdoor bench. Key-coded entry for easy access. See photos within the listing. Just some mundane details: Exterior compartments contain basic setup materials and will not be accessible.

Country setting, 10-acre parcel surrounded by conifer trees to provide privacy. Local restaurants and shops just minutes away (please see "Guidebook" and zoom out for more business information and their proximity). Some "hidden" inexpensive eats and nature within minutes.

Highly recommend other travels to stay here.

Matt2017-05-22T00:00:00Z

Very spacious and comfortable. Very accommodating and not that far from downtown Grand Rapids. Enjoyed the camp fire and the wood the host provided. Thanks!

Kort2016-08-28T00:00:00Z

Clint promptly answered every correspondence (email and text) I sent. He stopped by the site and we had a delightful chat. Also, he gave us great recommendation for places to eat. The trailer was modern, clean and in excellent condition. The bed was so comfortable. We certainly enjoyed our stay.

Joyce2016-10-02T00:00:00Z

Great stay!

Dan2016-08-16T00:00:00Z

The place there is great, it is truly a home away from home. Clint is the perfect host, and I'd highly recommend his place!!!

Bill2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

I didn't end up staying here.

Sandra2016-07-29T00:00:00Z

Three of us came to Michigan from away for a family reunion in the next town. When we arrived we were able to check in on our own. That evening Clint stopped by to answer any questions and show us some tips about how things worked in the camper. sWe liked the amenities of having a home away from home with microwave, a large refrigerator (the shelving spacing could accommodate a gallon container plus other food items) and complete bathroom. The beds were comfortable. The camper is well cared for and the 12 foot slide out-living /dining room provided ample area so that we did not feel confined. sWe had a spacious lot to call our own. Peaceful. Birds, butterflies, and a rabbit hopped by the picnic table. We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 day stay in this country setting.

Annette2017-06-13T00:00:00Z

Appreciated the quiet of the rural location. There place was extremely clean with what ever we needed. We were able to check in on our own. Clint stopped by to see if we had any questions. We would stay there again.

I live in a rural area, its very quiet with no visible neighbors. There are three hospitals near me so if you are a traveling nurse you can't beat the location. I have two indoor/outdoor cats. I love animals so if you are bringing a pet along that's fine so long as it is cat friendly and house trained.

What could be more inviting than a summer stay at Bostwick Lake? The home is located on a spacious lot with fabulous views of the evening sunsets. The guest room is on the ground floor walk out, a sliding door opens & you are able to make yourself at home in the beautiful yard, or sit with toes in the sand on comfortable beach chairs, or walk out on the dock & relish the sights & sounds of the lapping water as the lake sparkles before you. The guest room is cottage like & a cozy place for 2 , with a comfortable bed & plenty of towels available. A pleasant surprise was the addition of fluffy white bathrobes & beach towels, for my use. A Kuerig coffee pot & plenty of pods made the mornings even more pleasant. The hosts provided information & magazines about local attractions; a afternoon trip to Rockford was most enjoyable, only 10 -15 minutes away with lots of great shopping & a large variety of restaurants. Speaking of restaurants, we had a delicious dinner at the nearby Bostwick Lake Inn, where we watched the boats & sights on the lake as we ate. And each day was not complete without a walk around the lake, which was made easier by a walking trail & a rest stop available at the lake park. The hosts were extremely gracious & helpful, always available & friendly. I hope to return again next year for another wonderful visit.

Barbara2017-07-18T00:00:00Z

Michelle2017-07-31T00:00:00Z

Betsy describes the room exactly how it is. Quite, comfortable and clean. The lake is clean and a nice swim/lounge beach area. I enjoyed a cup of coffee at the end of the dock in complete tranquility. I'll be back for sure.

A homey cottage on a quiet lake with 40 private acres of forests, meadows and wildlife
-all conveniently located to metropolitan areas and shopping.
PLEASE NOTE WE RENT SUNDAY TO SUNDAY IN SUMMER MONTHS:
June 18- August 27
PLEASE INQUIRE before requesting a reservation.
No weddings or reunions

Privacy, space and nature make this property special. Situated on 40 acres of forest and meadow between 2 lakes is our family cabin of 40 years. The land is a magical place to unplug.
The cabin faces a small deep lake teeming with fish, Little Blue. We share it's entire perimeter with only 2 other families. We are 20 minutes from Greenville, 45 minutes from Grand Rapids, 2.5 hours from metro Detroit and 3.5 hours from Chicago.
Imagine floating in the small, quiet lake that mirrors the clouds and natural shoreline of the trees. Around you fish are jumping, turtles sunning, birds fishing, dragonflies galore…. Should you swim in the velvet water to the blue raft or canoe through the channel to explore the shallow lake? You could walk the trails through 40 acres of forest and meadows, spying monarchs and giant swallowtails as you pick blueberries and sneak up on wild turkeys. You could swing on the swing overlooking the lake and watch for the resident wood ducks and the pileated woodpecker. After dinner on the deck watch the fireflies, listen to frogs then build a bonfire and gaze at the stars. In wet weather lounge inside by the wood stove, peruse books and play games with your kids.
The cabin is modest and cozy not fussy. It was built for good times. You enter through the 3 season room that faces both forest and lake. The main room has a kitchen, dining and living area all with views of the lake and plenty of comfy seating. There are 4 bedrooms. The one off the living room has a view of the lake, 2 twin beds and a full bathroom. The other 3 bedrooms, one with a queen and two with full beds are off a hall from the kitchen as well as the second full bath. In addition there is a washer and dryer and a large deck.
Included is the use of a small dock, a platform raft for swimming in deep water, 2 canoes, 1 row boat and 8 life jackets. The beach is grass and moss with some sand at the water's edge and shallows. The lakes mainly have a soft bottom. No gas motors allowed. There is a Weber charcoal grill, 1 gas grill and a dart board. The kitchen is well equipped and has a gas stove and oven, microwave, toaster, coffee-maker/cappuccino maker and vases for wildflowers. There is a speaker system for iPods or computers and a vintage radio plus a TV for DVD use. We do not offer internet service but reception is excellent for AT&T and Verizon, perfect for an iPad.
Shinrin-yoku is the Japanese art of bathing the senses in the sounds, sights and air of the forest. Trees emit an organic compound, phytoncide that balances the mind and body, enhances the immune system and relieves stress. In this forest slow down, touch a tree, smell the scents, listen to the breeze in the canopy above and the crunch of the leaves below. It's pleasurable and healthy, just what we all need; then take a dip in the velvety lake.
More of what we need!
Please inquire before requesting a reservation. We are open Memorial Day weekend through November 1st. Other dates are possible but depend on weather conditions. We typically close the cabin from January until sometime in May. At this time we are only booking for full weeks Sunday to Sunday between June 18th and August 27th. Weekends may be booked for the end of May, beginning of June and in September and October.
Only people that respect nature need inquire. Children are encouraged but MUST be supervised.
Birding is encouraged. Fishing is fine. Hunting is NOT permitted.
NO hunting, firearms, explosives or fireworks allowed.
NO Fifth wheels.
We do expect guests
to be respectful
of the effort we take to deliver a clean and orderly cottage when guests arrive and

to be respectful of
the arrival experience of another family of guests.
Please be kind, reasonable and follow the rules.

Catherine2014-07-03T00:00:00Z

My friends and I had a great time enjoying the fall weather in the Shirin-yoku cabin. The wood stove kept us toasty even in the chilly evenings. The cabin had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and the grounds are just remote enough to feel like you're in your own little world while the amenities of town aren't far away. I'm looking forward to staying here again.

Jessica2016-10-23T00:00:00Z

What a relaxing weekend! The property was very private, which was great for our group of friends. The house is nothing fancy, but it had plenty of bedrooms and did the job for a modest weekend vacation. Enjoy!

Danielle2016-06-20T00:00:00Z

As usual (this was our third trip back) we had a beautiful time at the property. Impeccably clean, well equipped and relaxing and gorgeous. Highly recommended

una2015-09-08T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful time at the Shirin-yoku cabin. The place works well for both couples and families. Jennifer is very accomodating host and easy to correspond with and we'll definitely recommend others, who like us once in while wishes to get away from the City, to stay here.

Spacious and well-equipped cottage on a quiet lake just 40 minutes north of Grand Rapids. Enjoyed the deck, dock, raft, canoes, paddle boat, fire pit, and well-kept grassy yard. Secluded, but only a 15-minute drive to major grocery stores in Greenville.

Lee2017-07-02T00:00:00Z

Upon entering the realm of Shinrin-yoku, our band of weary travelers was instantly enchanted by the natural beauty of this deciduous paradise. The splendor of the forest's colorful bouquet of reds, yellows and oranges dancing in the crisp autumn breeze was doubled by its reflection on the placid, crystalline lake, as ducks, herons and other forest creatures went about their creaturely business. The secluded atmosphere provides the perfect escape to another world, albeit a familiar one, yet the considerately well-furnished house provides all the amenities of home, as well as a few extra surprises. It has plenty of activity for visitors of any age; retirees, newlyweds, cool moms, kids and adults, even kids who happen to be adults. The hiking trails and easy-to-maneuver canoes provide an option for the adventurous, there are musical instruments for the creative, and board games for cozy moments. But the real hero of the weekend was the classic old-fashioned wood-burning stove which kept the house warm and snuggly throughout the night. The experience was better than any of us imagined it could be, and it was all facilitated by the friendly and helpful demeanor of Jennifer and neighbor Daina. Thanks for everything! Truly, an unforgettable place.

This is a new house with an old farmhouse feel. The comfortable accommodations are surrounded by a pastoral setting with a few animals in the pasture. We have two dogs in the house. We have some great restaurant recommendations within a short drive.

Even though we are out in the country we are only 15 miles from the heart of Grand Rapids.

Lisa and Nathaniel are friendly, welcoming hosts. I stayed with them for 11 nights while in the area on business. I could socialize as much or as little as I wanted and I did chat with the hosts, especially Lisa. I enjoyed several long walks in their neighborhood. Love their doggies, Libbey and Lily. In fact I think I'm Lilly's new best friend. I definitely recommend Bluebird Meadows!

Cindy & Diane2017-05-06T00:00:00Z

Nathaniel and Lisa were great hosts, very accommodating. Their place is beautiful. I had everything I needed.

Matt2017-08-04T00:00:00Z

We were staying at this beautiful farmhouse for a second time. It was once again a beautiful setting with the goat and chickens outside our window. Everything was clean, tidy, and our hosts were hospitable as always! It's a great place to stay when we are in the area.

Dave (and Laura)2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

Looking for relaxation from our busy city we planned a trip to west Michigan. Fortunately we found the blue bird meadow home. Our stay was short, but very well enjoyed. We felt welcomed from the moment we walked out the car. Both Lisa and Than gave us a home tour. Such a beautiful home full of perfectly placed antiques throughout the home. We had breakfast with our host the morning of our departure. They were very detailed oriented. Completely above and beyond our expectations we shall return soon. Highly recommended!

Jackie & Luis2015-06-28T00:00:00Z

William and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at Bluebird Meadow. The farm that Lisa and Than live on, as well as their beautiful home was equally our favorite parts of this listing. We couldn't have asked for a more relaxed, quite and calm environment on our vacation to Michigan. We would recommend this listing to any traveler, especially a traveler who is looking to escape the city and enjoy a relaxing time "on the farm," away from the hustle and bustle of life. We also enjoyed a great conversation with Lisa and Than, both very kind and loving people. We may have to come back to this listing in the future!:)

Joel2015-08-22T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful stay at bluebird meadow! Our hosts were very hospitable and kind. Our room was quiet, clean and comfortable. Bluebird meadow has many wonderful animals, a beautiful landscape and garden. We very much recommend it to someone looking for a country abode.

Come enjoy beautiful Bostwick Lake just outside of Grand Rapids, MI. Our three bedroom cottage comfortably sleeps five people. West Michigan natives make the most out of a weekend away by not having a far commute. Great for summer and winter activities. Coming for Ninja Warrior or Michigan State Games were a great place to stay and unwind between events.

Three bed rooms
One bathroom
Large kitchen
Nice sandy beach
A cozy cottage is the best way to describe our Grand Rapids getaway.

Classic, clean & comfortable cottage right on Bostwick Lake. Jes is a great host that made us feel very welcome. Perfect for family weekend escape - "Up North" without the drive. Easy access to GR but don't miss the Bostwick Lake Inn a short walk away.

Cole2017-07-06T00:00:00Z

Jes was very friendly, quick to respond to messages and flexible with check-out. The lake was beautiful, and my family loved hanging out on the back porch and at the beach behind the house. The home itself is exactly as advertised.

Olivia2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Loved staying at the cottage! The neighbors are friendly and Jes is a wonderful host. It was especially fun being such a short walk from Bostwick Inn, food is great and a fun place to catch a game! Also just 20 minutes driving to downtown Grand Rapids. Would definitely come back!

Allison2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

A nice little cabin to enjoy. We were in grand rapids for a baseball tournament and it was nice to not be in a hotel room. A nice place to be able to sit outside around a fire at night. Jes will help out with anything extra you need.

Chris2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

This cottage is quaint, cozy, and perfectly located on a gorgeous lake! With plenty of room to spread out, this is the perfect weekend get-away or family vacation spot. The cottage offered great amenities such as a row boat, paddle boards, a fire pit, and lounge chairs, and is just steps away from the water. And Bostwick Lake is close to the adorable town of Rockford for shopping and restaurants.

Pet friendly. private, relaxing. Country setting where privacy abounds. 156 acres of Mid Michigan Country with a 10 acre privately [FAMILY] owned lake. Great swimming, fishing/ice fishing, snorkeling, hiking. Perfect for a couple families. The kids will never be bored. Many extras.
Room for groups like, Family Reunions, Group outings, Holiday Gatherings, Deer Widows Weekend, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years!

This is a total family country getaway. There are no other cottages on the lake! Owner provides 2 rowboats, 2 kayaks, and a paddle wheel boat. You can watch your kids swim from the living room or kitchen. A large dock extends from a sandy beach and gives a place for the kids to jump into the water on one side and boats are moored on the other side.
Unbelievable fresh water fishing, from a boat or ice fishing. Since there are no other houses on the lake it's almost like your the first people to fish there. The lake has Large Mouth Bass, Northern Pike, Blue Gills, and Crappies.
With supervision, kids or adults can have a great time snorkeling and seeing many fish and turtles. There are no other boats on the lake to worry about.

Although this property is totally private and you'll feel like your out in the middle of nowhere, it's really only a half mile to town. Sheridan is a small quaint town but it has a good grocery store, dollar store, gas stations, and hospital.

We had a wonderful time at the cottage for a short week. It feel like you are in the middle of nowhere yet town is only two minutes away. Everything we needed was there, and clean as well. We have and would recommend this cottage to anyone. We as well as our kids enjoyed ourselves immensely fishing, swimming kayaking and much more. Thank you Dallas for a wonderful experience

Gerrit2016-09-19T00:00:00Z

This was our second year at this location and we loved it just as much the second time. Everyone loved the paddle boat, kayaks, and great fishing from the dock. There is a lot of outdoor seating which made it easy to relax and keep an eye on the kids at the same time. There were many children of various ages in our group and they all found activities they could enjoy. In addition to the outdoor activities, the game room, board games, and TV were great ways to keep busy. The cottage's central location made it a great meeting spot for people from both sides of Michigan. We would definitely recommend this location for a group gathering.

This was the perfect locations n for a family vacation - especially two families with young kids. We totally over packed, because the cottage had everything we needed, including booster seats, kids life vests, games, sand toys, outdoor toys like wiffle ball, and a pack n play. The kids loved the paddle and row boats. The adults and bigger kids enjoyed the kayaks. My 3 year old caught her first fish off the pier. The lawn is well manicured with plenty of space for kids to run around. And everyone enjoyed s'mores at the fire pit in the evening. Unfortunately my baby got an ear infection on the trip, but the hospital is literally walking distance. The staff there was very friendly and sent us on our way quickly with medicine in hand. The cottage feels very secluded, but the grocery store and hospital are just minutes away. So it's a great spot for families. We'd love to stay again!

We absolutely loved our stay! Dallas was very responsive from the beginning and answered all of our questions along the way. He also met us at the house to show us around upon arrival. We stayed here with a group of 12 adults. The house was comfortable and there was plenty of space for everyone to sleep. There was no ac, but plenty of fans already at the house. Dallas has pretty much everything already at the house you could need: towels, bedding, pots, pans, water toys, volleyball, yard games, life jackets, etc. We would highly recommend this home to anyone and we will likely be back in the future. Thank you, Dallas!

Allie 2017-07-09T00:00:00Z

Dallas and his wife are so kind, helpful and accommodating! The house is exactly like the pictures. We rented the home for our family vacation; my husband, our 5 children, my mom and myself. We had beds and space to spare! We had fun using the lake daily, game room, taking a walk around the crops and having a bonfire at night. There is so much to do right on the property. We felt like we were far away from civilization, but towns are within 10 min. We absolutely loved our stay and will be back. We highly recommend this property and Host!
